Too many of these old treasures being hoarded by collectors and sitting in vaults. Great to see this one out in its natural environment, doing what it was born to do.

It makes me so happy to see Jason carry the legacy of that guitar with such loving respect. He's a class act.

I love it when great guitars end up in the hands of great guitar players ... and I bet the guitars do, too

I wish I could give an extra thumbs up for the appearance of Sadler f'n Vaden!

Fucking hell, that bridge pickup through the marshall is fucking absurdly good.

So glad you got this guitar Jason because you can do it justice. The tone is amazing! So many classic sounds off of the records we all grew up on and loved. And you are a great artist, songwriter, and musician in your own right. Brilliant stuff man!

The magic about ‘Burst (the average that is good, when ‘good’ is fantastic, and the ones that are epic, where you are in the out of this world range) is about being so FULL but with THAT clarity and definition of every harmonics the guitar produces. These guitars sound like... a rainbow.

Plays since I’ve been loving Me: eyes welting Him: yeah I think that’s about right My wife: are you crying? Me: i think the tone is cutting onions idk

Thanks for sharing this beautiful 59!! So nice to see people actually playing them!!

So much fun. You guys made my heart smile today. Thanks.

So glad I stumbled onto this video. Great job, Jason, I really enjoy your playing and how you approach owning this guitar. You and Sadler really bring it!!

Thanks for the vid fellas! Good times.

What a nice guy, a very fortunate one as well thanks for sharing all your memories and information on the 59 👍🏻 it’s gorgeous 👍🏻

Right! Got the vintage 59 burst and 50 watt Marshall in the cart. Anyone have a link to the ability to play like I’ve practiced 8 hours a day for 25 years? I’m ready to pull the trigger on the purchase

A couple of great players, very inspiring! Thanks you guys!

You are doing some great playing on it and thanks for giving us the full show of what a burst should be.

So fun !! Informative, inspiring. Thanks guys.

Only 630 subscribers on Sadler’s channel, the dude is a monster on guitar.....

That’s the closest most accurate “Money For Nothing” Intro I’ve heard on KZfaq.

Both killer guitar players. Thanks fellas!

Fantastic guitar...an absolute treasure !

we are all suckers for the old guys and their gear ! Great playin' ! Congrats man !

Great Video Guys ! Thanks

Just look back on the video interviews Ed did at the end of his life. He played the guitar, he shared it, it was something he loved. He wanted it to be played. It couldn't have found it's way somebody who appreciates it more and will use it.

I don't play guitar but i love this one. Yes Jason Isbell and DBT are on my top list -ever. 25 envy ppl disliking, nice.

One of the best parts about 2020 with stuff like this

That 59 is gorgeous. Awesome tone too

Holy shit. That guitar/amp combo is a monster!

It has a crisp sound bringing clarity to each individual note when played , and chords tend to blend notes into a slight distortion.

Homework done by these boys!

that last little jam was sweet :)

I love guitar, it just keeps giving, it’s like they connect you to some higher magic, even if you aren’t even all that good. Just sit down with a beer or a cup of tea and a lose yourself in that shit. x

Well, that certainly is some sick tone...what a sick and twisted fella. Cheers to that!

What a great vid. Great that he goes through so many settings. So glad he found a way to get this and give us all a really giddy spin with it. PS So much buzz... My Marshall 50w stack is not a s noisy

Love guitars and sneakers. Glad to see you rocking the Jordans

That was really interesting to hear.

Your guitar jam at the end. Was really good, can hear the tellicaster stratocaster differences loud and clear on lead and rythm

That sounds loud even through my laptop speakers :) Amazing guitar, super interesting instrument, great playing and tone....but my custom shop Les Paul sounds pretty similar...It's still just a guitar (With a HUGE history behind it)...

TomatoTone! Jsson must be a fan of Dan & Mick (That Pedal Show). ☺️

Proper playing and tone, guys! Those cranked amps are the real deal.

"Weird birthday gigs in the Hamptons" I could only imagine. Tell me more please.

When he said about the half cocked wah sound. That’s how Mick Ronson set his sound for Bowie on Ziggy Stardust.

Thanks Jason, great stuff + a little Big Star I remember the first time seeing you with DBT in Denver playing the hell out of a Gretsch! Rock on 🤘

Thanks Jason! You have certainly been influenced by some great players!

What an axe👍great player and he’s got a sense of humour to boot.

Ah yes, the Tomatotone. My personal favorite. It goes good with everything.

Imagine Jason put out a classic rock album...

Does anyone know what brand the blue les paul case in the background is?

HOW. IT’S. DONE!

Amazing to hear. I think Gibson got the MHS humbuckers very close. How does it feel to put a ding in a guitar that expensive?

Ed King would be proud.

Needed a good room mike, great to see a real Marshall flat out. There are a lot of great reproductions of this model guitar. So many good sounds. Clean boost the neck pickup.

Well now.. some sweet sweet tone there

Love the Cincinnati chili reference.

Awesome that he is demoing red-eye playing some Zep!!!

In all the live versions that exist on video page clearly starts on the neck for the first notes then switches to the middle and then on to the bridge . Also page did not use les Paul's with his supro he used his tele with the supro.

that Bridge PAF really does have the "3D" thing going on that the cork sniffers talk about

Nice, nice, nice....

the Fender jam was great

What the hell is jason doing around 30:28? To get that sustain/ebow type ring? Is there a name for this technique?

Nice guitar

What was the first thing / riff that Sadler played?

Depends on the guitar n what Jimmy's feelin. On mine its fun in the middle with the neck on 7, then tweek the bridge into a sweet spot. Fer leed you bump the bridge to 10, then theres the straight bridge position on 10, lil slight boost. But in the middle you get 90% what you need. Infinately fun!! Mines n ol 74

Jimmy page used his telecaster on since I been Loving you & manually adjusted the volume knob

I know it's not polite to ask, but how much did this guitar cost? This video was so satisfying I can't explain it.

One of the best ive heard, but if you listen close, it sounds very different to your normal 59....The PAFS, have a completely distinct tone...And while im writing this, his friend said the same thing...It doesnt sound like PAFS to me, i know they are but something is different..

2 things... I’ve been pronouncing Isbell wrong for years When you top wrap, do you screw the tailpipe all the way down?

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💪💪💪💪💪🤘🤘🤘🤘

whats the riff at about 20:40 - i've heard it so often but can't place it

What is the name of the pedal?? Chase?

What rig is he playing through.

My 50 watt Marshall will tear your head off. As we all know, 100 watt Marshalls are near impossible to be next to. But this is known. great fiddle right there.

I HAVE LES PAULS FROM EVERY DECADE THEY ALL SOUND GREAT NOT ONE SOUNDS BETTER THAN THE OTHER,YOU DON'T NEED A VINTAGE INSTRUMENT TO SOUND GOOD, 4030-23

Jimmy can we get a verification?!” Neck?? Or middle position?? Or not indeed a Les Paul at all??? 😮

Played the strat but that guitar was still stolen when I rented one of Ed's house

Chicago music exchange-Carter’s emerald city in Seattle

Sadler's pinky!!

Sounds great but reminds me of when I use my Marshall with a hotplate but have it turned up a little too much into full on saturation or with the bass turned up too much. I don't know maybe they jumpered the channels? I know it can sound better but still pretty damn cool. Love Redeye. Great players for sure and nice guys. I enjoyed it fella's. Not complaining just saying I have heard that sound before.

Neck position for sure!

Ed King's guitar!

No way in hell the SIBLY intro is in the middle position

I don't get why the Imperial is on the stage, and zoomed in, I'd they don't play it

So this entire demo was going through a pedal, if so , why? I would love to hear the instrument cleanly no pedals.

Just noticed his strap has a little red eye on it too.

Flipping the pickup around does nothing to alter phase . Peter greens guitar was out of phase becuase the magnet got installed wrong after one of the coils had to be rewind and was rewound with formvar wire so it had one coil with plain enamel wire and one coil with formvar wire and the magnet fipped . Flipping the pickup alone does nothing to alter phase and installing the cover wrong does nothing to alter phase either .

Great playing Jason. But you lost me at a pedal demo. I wish you would have just went straight into the 50 watt and let us hear the guitar and the tone created by your playing!

Peter greens guitar tone is..

Reminds me of Porter Wagner for some reason

The Tele sounds better than the 59

Should be called the Ed King redeye. JMO.

Great guitar, but thats a lot of hiss lol 50w tube cranked is nuts

what happen to the rubber gloves? are they super spreaders?

I have a 50 Ultra phonic Dumble for sale in case you want another one Jason im in Texas holla....

For anyone that cares Ed King Really liked WIZZ pick ups Because he felt they were closest to the old PAF👍 Pretty confident he would know😂

As soon as you put on the mask, I was out of there! I thought the guitar was too much until I seen that.

That crazy hollow woody bite saw tooth thing... yeah, no new Gibson does that. My 8.8 lb prehistoric reissue flame top is the closest with the Shaws but, no purple wire doesn't have that smoothness that real PAF's have. Still close than any boutique like trobak arcane doyles so many more can't name them all but, it's the light old dry wood and the right pickup design. Gibson's custombucker 3's and the dense wood makes them all sound dead.

Gee i think its great but it ain't $499,000 dollars better than my 2002 les paul studio ebony with all upgraded electronics, hardware, etc and brandon wound pickups thru a Fuchs bj21 mkii with celestion classic 30 made in uk miked up! And i agree too many fabulous guitars bought for museums or investments that should get played. Oh well such is life. Eddie didn't spend much on his guitars did he?? Its really all about composing in case you young guys haven't figured that out yet.

That’s awesome! How stunning, brave and privileged of you to be able to be considered as an advanced “player” in respect to being first in line to critique Ed’s collection, as well as being able to afford purchasing one of his guitars, even if it meant debasing and selling yourself out playing those “wedding” gigs in the Poconos. Obama approves, chubbs. 👍🏼

This guitar is great 2just look@ . Id heard that you could buy a 59'burst out of the Sears Catalog for $250 in 1959 ? The guitar is just made too play ... Whether you've played 4yrs. or if your just a beginner . ✌️Im out !

Pretty, pretty, pretty......good
